Edited and published by Colin Sackett since 2011. The project has now adopted a more variable approach, new titles appearing as and when, both uniform and 'nonuniform'.

Many thanks to Colin Sackett of Uniform Books for my copy of 'done' which is an excellent example of 'scriptio continua' (or perhaps that should be 'scriptiocontinua' and youseewhatIdid there).

Mr Pye.
There is only Denis, Miss Parrott and me. We all get along very well. Miss Tomb is away, has been since January. I've been planting cabbages this past week.

"There are 66 publishers at this year’s event. 66 arguments for the book and the idea of the book. 66 examples of what a small press can do."
"The inventory is whatever will fit into two rucksacks and two carrier bags. To be hauled, on foot, between tram, train and tube. City to city.​ One year to the next."

Over the past 50 years, the artist John Smith has built up a body of work at once disarming and tender; one that, above all else, makes us think about how we see the world and our place within it artreview.com/being-the-on...
